Savory Stuffed Chicken Thighs: A Family Recipe for a Flavorful Dinner

1 cup breadcrumbs
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup spinach, chopped
¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon thyme
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons cream cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
For Cooking:
2 tablespoons butter
½ cup chicken broth
½ cup white wine (optional)
Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Stuffing
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, onion, garlic, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, oregano, thyme, egg, and cream cheese.
Mix well until all ingredients are combined and form a slightly sticky mixture.
Step 2: Stuff the Chicken Thighs
Lay the chicken thighs flat, skin-side down.
Season the inside with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Place a spoonful of the stuffing in the center of each thigh and roll them up tightly.
Secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine to keep the stuffing in place.
Step 3: Sear and Cook
Heat olive oil and butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
Sear the stuffed chicken thighs for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
